U.S. stocks rallied Thursday after the Trump administration signed its first major trade agreement with the United Kingdom, igniting optimism about further global deals — especially with China — and lifting investor <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">appetite for riskier assets.</a>
The S&amp;P 500 jumped 1.3% to close at 5,700, led by gains in technology stocks. The Russell 2000 soared 2.1%, outperforming larger-cap counterparts and fully recovering the losses triggered by the April 2 tariff announcement.
Under the deal, the U.S. slashed tariffs on UK-made vehicles from 25% to 10%, granting British carmakers a 100,000-vehicle quota. In return, the UK reduced tariffs on American beef to near-zero levels and pledged to purchase $10 billion worth of Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) aircraft. Trump confirmed that the 10% tariff would remain the baseline for now, though he suggested other nations with large trade surpluses should expect higher rates.
During a press briefing, Trump hinted at the &#8220;biggest tax cuts in history&#8221; and urged investors to act: "You better go out and buy stock. This country will be like a rocket ship," he said.
The president also responded to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, who noted a day earlier he hadn't been invited to meet with Trump. "I could call him from a meeting, but it's like talking to a wall," Trump said. 
"He's always too late [in cutting interest rates]. But in this case, it's not going to matter that much because our country is so strong."
Markets reflected that strength. The U.S. dollar rallied sharply as the new trade deal and reduced economic uncertainty boosted confidence. The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) jumped to its highest level since April 11, climbing over 1% against the Japanese yen.
Treasury yields rose across the curve, with the 10-year yield adding 7 basis points to reach 4.34%.
In commodities, gold prices dropped as investors rotated out of safe havens. The SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>) fell 1.5%, trimming its weekly gains. Oil prices rose 3.5%, with West Texas Intermediate crude topping $60 per barrel.
Crypto markets erupted higher. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) broke above $100,000 for the first time since February, rising 4.1%. Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) surged 13%, while Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) gained 10%.

Wall Street Rallies After US Seals First Trade Deal: 'You Better Go Out And Buy Stock,' Trump Says

Molson Coors Beverage Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAP#NYSE">TAP</a>) shares are trading lower on Thursday after<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/b45279841/molson-coors-beverage-company-reports-2025-first-quarter-results" rel="noreferrer noopener"> the company reported first-quarter results.</a>
The company reported adjusted earnings per share of 50 cents, missing the Street view of 83 cents. Quarterly sales of $2.30 billion missed the analyst consensus of $2.41 billion.
Net sales decreased 11.3% reported and 10.4% in constant currency. Price and sales mix favorably impacted net sales by 4.1%.
Financial volumes dropped 15.6% in the quarter. This was mainly due to lower brand volumes and prior-year inventory build.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/04/44703031/this-beverage-maker-tobacco-company-and-packaged-food-giant-outshine-in-a-recession" rel="noreferrer noopener">This Beverage Maker, Tobacco Company And Packaged Food Giant Outshine In A Recession</a>
Exiting U.S. and Canada contract brewing cut volume by around 4%.
Molson Coors said its underlying EBITDA (Non-GAAP) was $353.3 million, compared with $476.2 million in the year-ago period.
CEO Gavin Hattersley said the company&#8217;s first-quarter results were affected by macroeconomic challenges, competitive pressures in EMEA &amp; APAC, and anticipated headwinds such as last year&#8217;s U.S. inventory build, the end of contract brewing in the Americas, and Fever-Tree transition fees.
&#8220;Uncertainty around the effects of geopolitical events and global trade policy, including the impacts on economic growth, consumer confidence and expectations around inflation, and currencies has pressured the beer industry and consumption trends,&#8221; Hattersley said.
Total debt as of March 31 was $6.237 billion, and cash and equivalents totaled $412.7 million.
Outlook: For FY25, the company projects a low single-digit decrease of net sales year over year on a constant currency basis (prior view: low single-digit increase)
For adjusted earnings per share, the firm projects a low single-digit increase on a year-over-year basis (prior view: high single-digit increase).
Price Action: TAP shares are trading lower by 4.68% to $54.18 at last check Thursday.

Molson Coors Beverage Company ("Molson Coors" or the "Company") (NYSE:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAP#NYSE">TAP</a>, TAP.A, TSX:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TPX#TSX">TPX</a>, TPX.B)) today announced that after 28 years in the beer industry, including over six years as President and CEO of Molson Coors Beverage Company, Gavin Hattersley has informed the Company and the Board of Directors (the "Board") that he intends to retire from the Company and as a member of the Board, in each case, by December 31, 2025.
&nbsp;
In accordance with the Company's established governance policies, the Board is launching a search led by the Governance Committee to identify and appoint the next CEO. The Committee will benefit from its existing CEO-succession process and will consider internal and external candidates. A nationally recognized search firm will assist the Committee through the process.
"Gavin has been a steady hand at the wheel as CEO, navigating through incredible challenges that no one could ever have predicted while guiding our Company to growth, strengthening our foundation, and setting us up for an even brighter future to come," said Board Chair Geoff Molson. "Our business today stands on the shoulders of the many generations of the Molson and Coors families who have come before us. Gavin has lived up to their rich legacy, and he will retire having left an indelible mark on our business and the global beer industry. We are incredibly appreciative of his leadership."
"Gavin has always been a leader you can count on to operate with integrity, share his views openly and honestly, bring teams together, and do what's best for the business," said Board Vice-Chair David Coors. "Whether it's our people or our partners, Gavin's leadership has helped everyone around our business be their best, and he's put our Company on a path to an even brighter future. I want to thank Gavin for his many years of service, his leadership and his passion for our collective success."
Hattersley will retire having built a reputation as a leader with high integrity and will leave a legacy of leading with a steady hand during times of external challenge and change. Having entered the beer industry with South African Breweries (SAB) in 1997, Hattersley served in leadership roles at SABMiller, MillerCoors and Molson Coors. When SAB acquired Miller in 2002, he was the first South African to move into the U.S. business, and he has been one of the key leaders who helped grow the business. Since then, the Company has grown both its top and bottom line substantially, reaching annual net sales revenue of $11.6 billion and underlying income before income taxes of $1.6 billion in 2024.
He was also heavily involved in the creation of the MillerCoors U.S. joint venture in 2008, serving as the business's first CFO and later its CEO. Hattersley became CEO of Molson Coors in September 2019 and has led the Company to its strongest position since it was formed – returning the Company to growth under his Revitalization Plan and building on that growth with his Acceleration Plan.
In those six years, Molson Coors has delivered its two highest years of annual net sales revenue and its two highest years of underlying income before income taxes. The Company has reduced its net debt by nearly 40% since the end of 2019 and improved the balance sheet to its strongest position since the MillerCoors acquisition in 2016. It has premiumized its global portfolio and begun its transformation into a total beverage company. Hattersley also forged multiple partnerships in beer, including a joint venture with D.G. Yuengling and Sons, and beyond beer, including a relationship with The Coca-Cola Company and the commercialization rights to Fever-Tree in the U.S. Yet, he will contend that he is most proud of the amazing team he has helped create and the careers he has helped develop.
"We have accomplished so much over the past six years and one thing I'm certain of is that none of it would have been possible without each of the 16,000 people across our business," said Hattersley in a message to Molson Coors employees. "You built the plans. You brought them to life. You pushed in the right places. You saw what others didn't. You were willing to take smart risks, to live up to the rich history of our brands while building for an even brighter future. Whether you are on the Leadership Team or are just getting started in your career here, whether you work in the field, in our offices or in a brewery, whether you are in our largest market or our smallest, you are responsible for our success and you are leading Molson Coors to a brighter future."
The Board's intention is for the next CEO to build upon the successes of Hattersley's Revitalization and Acceleration Plans, continuing to strengthen the Company's core brands, premiumize its portfolio, expand beyond beer, and invest in the Company's capabilities and people to achieve its long-term growth ambitions.
